As he sat on theseat, on front door a notice was pasted: “Had u put the same pressure at work, company’s targets would have beenachieved today” Employee gavean amazing replyby commenting below the notice: if you apply such pressure what comes out will alwaysbe shit Q3 Whatis a genuine fun fact that sounds entirely fabricated? A3 JoséAlberto, Ing. Systems from University of Guadalajara Nov 15 During World War II, the British Air Force sewed anextra button on all its soldiers' uniforms. But why? The button consisted of 2 halves. The lower half had a needle in the center pointingupwards. If you placed the top half on top of the bottom half, it rotated, toindicate North or South. Twoyellow dots on the button indicated North. So that small button became a kind of compass. It served so that the soldiers could orientthemselves in case of an emergency, something that I think is brilliant. My note- I am not able to copy reference…. Q4 Whatis India’s old name?

A5 JimMowreader, Printing Expert (1994–present)23h Frank goes to a store to buy a suit. He picks out onehe likes, pays for it and puts it on. So he’s walking down the street and sees one of hisfriends. “Joe! What do you think of my new suit?” “It’s nice,but one of the lapels is higher than the other.

What do you think ofmy new suit?” “It’s nice,but the right sleeve is too short.
